Ontario’s police watchdog says a Hamilton police officer has been charged with aggravated assault in connection with an arrest made earlier this year.
The Special Investigations Unit says a 59-year-old woman sustained a serious injury during her arrest on Feb. 23.
It says its investigation has concluded there are reasonable grounds to believe that the constable committed a criminal offence.
The SIU did not provide details about the nature of the arrest or the woman’s injuries.
The watchdog says the accused officer is expected to appear in a Hamilton court on Oct. 20.
It says it will not be providing any further comment on the case while it’s before the courts.
This report by The Canadian Press was first published Sept. 16, 2025.
